Giverny, France

Alan and I took the train up to Vernon and then rented bikes to tour Giverny and Monet's house and gardens. Unfortunately, there are no pictures of Eloise here, she stayed home with Grandma. We had a great day sans bébé.
Alan on the Japanese bridge. He had to fight off the herds of septuagenarians to be in the photo by himself.

I was very impressed with these GIGANTIC leaves. I have no clue what type of plant it is....tina any thoughts?

This is Monet's waterlily pond with a view of the Japanese bridge. Unfortunately, we were too early in the season to see any blooms on the waterlilies. It was an incredibly gorgeous property nonetheless!

I'm particularly proud of this one. I've been trying to teach myself how to use our new 'fancy' camera. A friend taught me how to play with the manual focus.

Claude Monet's pink house with his enormous garden out front. I loved every inch of it!
